👍👍 The popular name "the islands" comes from whenever it rained, the whole field would flood and look like a lake, and the higher spots would look like islands floating on the sea.

    The popular name "the islands" comes from whenever it rained, the whole field would flood and look like a lake, and the higher spots would look like islands floating on the sea. When it's dry of course, it's a great place to hang out, catch your wind, enjoy a nap under the shade of a tree, share meals with people, or play with a ball or your dog. The taco sellers with the bike and basket lined with blue plastic are safe to eat, inexpensive and delicious. Since the place is inside the UNAM complex, it's very safe. Saturdays many people come to play with their dogs.

    This is the biggest park in "Ciudad Universitaria". Students used to seat here in order to watch the sunset, or what other people are doing. On Fridays, students also used to drink a beer with their friends in this place.

    Great place to relax, have fun, take your dog for a walk. Once in a while you can find an event.

    Normally buzzing with students coming and going, on weekends a beautiful park with families, dogs and their owners, some sports. Come stroll and enjoy modernist architecture and magnificent murales.

    Pros: great open space to run around with family and pets, free admission. Cons: uneven ground, dog poop. Many big events take place here. Mostly university, or university adjacent events.

    It's a great place if you want to enjoy nature. Depending on the day there are many cultural activities. The only strange thing is that it seems that everyone sells drugs.

    Famous place at UNAM, today was March 22th international day of the water. There was a lot to do, games, concerts, awards and so much more.

    It’s a beautiful place, you can students, athletes, and foreigners walking through the central library. When it rains it floods too much, be careful, loving the UNAM 💛💙
